Omg this almost made me cry I loved it. The high school I graduated from we did this sing to. This was one of my favorite ones. Y'all r the best :)

Was lucky to be at this performance in Frutillar, Chile. Goose bumps. Beautiful. Please come back again now that construction of Teatro del Lago is complete.

I cannot say that I am particularly fond of this arrangement. I have the feeling that it loses a bit of its "de profundis" in the added ornamentation. But, having said that.  the choir is remarkably well trained. Kudos on the performance.

[onthealley]

Goose bumps. Incredible. Thank you for your excellent performance of one of my favorite songs.

Deep South meets English 'refined' ! Very cute in its way. Thanks.

[chorister51]

Beautiful. Love the recorder.

[ppdenmark]

Who arranged this version of Shendoah, and who publishes it?

[jezza264]

The arrangement was commissioned by us from Chris Hazell. It is based on one he did for a recording made by Bryn Terfel. It is not published. Glad you like it!

[notyobs]

Superb

BEautiful!

[treblechoir99]

Fantastic and rewarding moment, thank you for this special moment for me. One question: what's Westminster from London? Westminster Cathedral Choir? or Abbey Westminster Choir?

[jezza264]

Thanks for your great comments. Westminster Boys' Choir is the choir of Westminster Under School, the prep. school (boys aged 7-13) of Westminster School.

They were finalists in BBC Radio 3 Choir of the Year Competition in 2008.

[treblechoir99]

Oh ok this school for boys. I think this school is just behind Westminster Abbey? Great standard from Music and Vocal Art in this school. Thank you very much, very appreciat. Again It's wonderful.

[fruitgum63]

beautiful

[beamishboy94]

Oh how I miss my old choir school. The beamishboy also misses his friends from his old choir school and his friends from St. Paul's choir school. If only my voice hadn't become unstable, I could still be singing religious cantatas. Now that my voice broke last year at age 13, I am relegated to playiing Handels oratories on my beloved clarinet, the instrument Mozart said is the closest to the human voice, instead of singing them.

[flames26543]

Absolutely Fantastic!
